School Privacy,Insurance and Personal Property Reminders

Annual privacy reminder for our school community
Our school collects and uses student and parent personal information for standard school functions or where permitted by law, as stated in the Schools’ privacy policy and the Schools’ privacy collection notice.
Our Photographing, Filming and Recording Students policy, describes how we collect and use photographs, video and recordings of students. The policy also explains when parent consent is required and how it can be provided and withdrawn.
We ask parents to also review the guidance we provide on how we use Microsoft 365/Google Workspace for Education safely at the school and what parents can do to further protect their child’s information. If after reviewing the guidance, you have any questions or concerns regarding your child using, please contact the school.
For more information about privacy, refer to: Schools’ privacy policy: information for parents. This information is also available in eleven community languages:
- Amharic
- Arabic
- Chinese
- Dari
- Gujarati
- Mandarin
- Somali

Reminder: School Insurance and Personal Property
The Department (which includes our school) does not have personal accident insurance for students.
If a student is injured at school or while participating in a school activity (including offsite) and requires medical treatment, parents/carers are responsible for all of their child’s medical expenses. This includes transport costs such as ambulance costs (which may include an air ambulance if considered necessary).
The Department (which includes our school) also does not have personal property insurance for staff and/or students.
Items of personal property that are lost, stolen or damaged at school or during school excursions are not the responsibility of Concord School or the Department. Staff and students are reminded not to bring items of value to school or on school excursions.
Concord School encourages parents/carers to consider obtaining their own accident insurance for students and property of value that may be brought to school.
